Unfortunately, I don't have nxt200x datasheet. Things would be clearer with the docs.

Could you provide a patch against the current tree?

The issue doesn't seem to be related to TUV1236D, but, instead with nxt200x.
The i2c command to enable the tuner is sent to nxt200x. If there are any
ATSC110 variant with a different demod (maybe a different version of nxt200x?),
then the users may experience different behaviors.

Please test the enclosed patch. It adds a proper gate_ctrl callback at saa7134
core, and initializes it for ATSC110. 

The gate_ctrl is close to what we currently have on cx88 driver, however with a
simpler implementation. We'll likely need to improve it, moving the i2c gate
control into nxt200x, adding the i2c close commands, and putting the gate_ctrl
initialization into saa7134-dvb.

You should notice that we don't know how to close the gate. So, the code is
still a workaroud.. However, to properly implement it, we need the help
of someone with the datasheets.

This should be needed to do per board. The issue here is that we need to know
the i2c open and close cmds.
